Wrongful distress

If any claim is made to or in respect of any property seized under a warrant, or in respect of the proceeds or value thereof, by any person not being the debtor, the Registrar, on the application of the bailiff who seized the property, may issue a summons calling before the court the claimant and the person who obtained the warrant, and thereupon any action which may have been brought in respect of such claim shall be stayed, and the court, on proof of the service of such summons and that the property was so distrained, may order the plaintiff to pay the costs of all proceedings in such action after the service of such summons.
